Which among the following produce crude oil (Petroleum) ?

  • A.Bombay High and West Bengal
  • B.Assam and Odisha
  • C.Gujarat and Tamil Nadu
  • D.Bihar and Bombay High

Answer: C

Crude oil is produced in Gujarat and Tamil Nadu.

Gujarat has major onshore fields around Ankleshwar, Kalol and Mehsana in the Cambay basin, and Tamil Nadu produces oil from the Cauvery basin. The other big producers are Bombay High, offshore of Mumbai, and Assam, home of Digboi, the oldest oilfield in the country.

Each other option pairs a producer with a non-producer: West Bengal, Odisha and Bihar have refineries or industry but no significant crude production, so 'Bombay High and West Bengal', 'Assam and Odisha' and 'Bihar and Bombay High' are all wrong.
